Simple Sour Cream Enchiladas

Okay, I’ll admit it. I haven’t “actually” tried this recipe (it’s on my ever-growing list of recipes to try). BUT, the list of ingredients is similar to that of the Chicken & Cream Cheese Casserole Adrie & Josh love so much (except it uses sour cream instead of cream cheese). It looks DELISH! Centsational Girl provides a fully illustrated how-to on her blog. Check it out here!

Also, if you haven’t tried the aforementioned Chicken & Cream Cheese Casserole, feel free to email me & I’ll send it to you (I can’t post it here unfortunately because it’s copywrited, sorry).

**UPDATE**

So, I tried the recipe tonight. In a word, yum! This made enough to fill an entire 9x13'” pan as well as an 8x8” pan, so keep that in mind when you make it…you may need to half the recipe. Also, next time I make this, I’ll probably just dice the chicken because, let’s face it, shredding chicken sucks.bigtime. And canned chicken…also.sucks.bigtime. ;)

If you wanted to give this recipe a little extra “something,” I think a little lime and cilantro would be fantastic. Just fyi.

Paprika Chicken

Total cook time: 30-40 minutes

1/2 cup flour

2 tsp. paprika

1 tsp. garlic powder

1 tsp. ground black pepper

4 skinless, boneless chicken breasts halves

1/4 cup butter

1 can Cream of Chicken Soup

1/4 cup diced onions

3/4 cup sour cream
1 tsp. ground red pepper (optional)

Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Mix the flour, paprika, garlic powder, and pepper(s) on a plate or large bowl. Thoroughly coat chicken with the dry mixture. Cook chicken uncovered for 10-15 minutes or until browned on both sides. Set chicken aside.

Stir in onions and soup, bring to a boil (will only take a minute or two.) Return the chicken to the skillet. Reduce to low heat, cover and simmer for 5 minutes or until the chicken is no longer pink in the middle. Plate chicken and stir sour cream into soup/onion/butter sauce.

It should look like this:

This is spicy, but not too much so that the little ones can't eat it. It goes great with corn on the cob or green beans.
